I have a Multimedia Designer education and a BBA in International Business & Marketing – and dozens of graphic courses and numerous photo shoot lessons. It has taken years to arrive at where I am now, and it’s still a lot of fun! I absolutely love what I do and I am so grateful that the universe has been so kind to me.
I discovered my passion for photography and drawing at a very young age. My father had a number of Leica cameras that I was allowed to play with, my Godfather was a successful photographer and my mother was a graphic designer. My parents were full of energy and they involved me in so many interesting things.
I grew up in a wonderful, creative and adventurous family and throughout my childhood I sailed in the Swedish archipelago where the Northern light is breath taking and inspiring. I have spent every summer holiday with my family in our beautiful summerhouse where drawing, playing and building rafts and tree houses were part of my daily life. During the winter we went skiing in the French Alps where I started experimenting with my camera. As a contrast to the liberal and creative environment I enjoyed at home, I attended an international school in Copenhagen run by Catholic nuns. I have lived in many countries and I speak Danish, Swedish, English, German and French.
My late grandfather Per Carlsen founded 'Carlsen Publishing' / 'CARLSEN Verlag', focusing on comics and children's illustrated books published all around the world inspired me very much – so story telling and looking at images have had a great impact on my life. Perhaps that is where my fascination with images, photography, painting and playing with colours comes from...
At the age of 21 I survived a very severe accident, which took years of training to recover from. It was a very hard time but also a gift, as it made me look at life in a very different way.
My job is my hobby and life is my inspiration. My adorable kids are the greatest gift in life, they inspire me every day and help me look at the world through different eyes. I love my family and friends, I also love sailing my Hobie Cat 16. Together with my childhood friend Yoanna, we travel around the world to race in championships in the Hobie, we have our own website called Hobiegirls.com, here you can read about our adventures. So beside my art and my family, I think that the sea has had a huge influence in who I am and how I work. The sea fills me up with so much energy and so many ideas. Skiing, diving, traveling, interior design are also great passions of mine.
I'm always on the look out for new opportunities to display my art around the world, so let’s see what 2018 will bring me!
Thank you for showing interest in my ARTWORK and me.
